We were able to obtain primary liability insurance, excess liability insurance and underinsured motorist coverage with the full payout of all coverages in the amount of $1,315,000.00.

Attorneys Counter Defense Argument of Illegal Passing, Obtain $560,000+ Settlement for Injured Motorcyclist

A pickup truck and motorcycle collision has resulted in a total liability and underinsured recovery of $562,600. The pickup truck was stopped at the intersection and signaling a left turn when the driver of the truck observed an acquaintance in a parking lot to his right and began to turn right towards the lot, instead of left. In doing so, the pickup struck the cyclist who was passing on the paved shoulder on that side of the vehicle. The motorcyclist suffered a head injury. According to the motorcyclist’s attorneys at Liever, Hyman & Potter, “the defense argued that our client illegally passed on the right and was responsible for the accident. We were able to show that the applicable statute permits passing a turning vehicle on the right so long as you remain on the paved road surface or shoulder. Our client at all times was on the paved shoulder and was therefore not himself negligent.
